Oxford Botanical Gardens

This is an Environment Agency-run site that measures water levels on a 15-minute interval on the River Cherwell upstream of where it joins the River Thames. During floods, this may be useful for assessing potential flooding in Cold Harbour from the River Thames. The Environment Agency says that property flooding is possible when the water level here is above 5.98 metres although it is assumed this refers to property in the area of the Botanical Gardens
